Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.

iNEMI’s PCBA Cleanliness End-of-Project Webinar Two Sessions Scheduled
October 3, 2019 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Join iNEMI to review the findings of PCBA Cleanliness project, which looked at the impact of cleanliness on PCBAs with bottom-terminated components (BTCs), with particular focus on ionic contamination levels. Using single-row QFN component packages as a representative example of a BTC, the team utilized clean and no-clean solder pastes and conducted various levels of cleaning (no-clean, water clean and solvent clean). They then conducted testing using methods such as SIR and ion chromatography in an effort to understand functional performance when residues are present underneath these packages.
Join the PCBA Cleanliness end-of-project webinar to review the results of this study. Two sessions are scheduled (October 7 & 8). The webinar is open to members and non-members; registration is required.
